It’s the story of a lifelong seeker who suffered years of escalating depression and anxiety, then discovered that the latest practices from brain science offered a path to the peace he longed for.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAN OPEN FIELD PUBLICATION FROM MARIA SHRIVER\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTom Rosshirt, like millions of people chasing peace, put his faith in the scripture of our culture: we find peace by becoming who we want to be. So Tom aimed high, worked hard and excelled. But instead of peace, he experienced debilitating anxiety, depression, and discouraging bouts of brain fog that forced him out of his life. He was one of a rising number of people now getting sidelined by conditions doctors can’t cure. Many sufferers never find their way back, but Tom got lucky. After another dead-end session with a psychiatrist, Tom heard about self-directed neuroplasticity—a daily practice of retraining the brain based on the discovery that pain and illness often start in the brain’s neural circuits, and what the brain learns, the brain can unlearn. After months of using this approach, Tom began to see an alignment between neuroplasticity and the principles of spiritual practice. Reversing the patterns that made him ill did more than make him well; it opened the path from stress to peace—from striving to be who we want to be to becoming who we are.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBrimming with hope, \u003ci\u003eChasing Peace \u003c\/i\u003eis for anyone who is \u003ci\u003esick\u003c\/i\u003e of chasing peace—but might be willing to read one more book.\u003cb\u003ePraise for \u003ci\u003eChasing Peace\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"A spiritual roadmap to a better life.\"\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e—Maria Shriver\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\"\u003ci\u003eChasing Peace\u003c\/i\u003e is for those seeking the love, grace, and peace of the second half of life\u003cb\u003e—\u003c\/b\u003eand who might falsely think they’ve failed after a crisis or a loss.
